A lot of times, some of my best ideas happen when I'm running. That's when I do my best thinking.

Generally, speed skaters don't run that much. I'm a little bit of an exception in that I run a lot.

I've been an athlete most of my life and on a disciplined schedule. Working out for me is just part of my every day.

I think that Subway has shown their own personal commitment as a company and how they believe in healthy choices.

I wanted to play football or be a boxer, but my dad didn't want that because of all the impact. But in 1992 I was watching short track, and it was obscure, but they looked like superheroes in their tight outfits, and I thought it was amazing. I wanted to do that. I made the national team at 14.

My mantra has always been to have zero regrets in life. Everything I do at one speed, I go all-out.

We all naturally want to become successful... we also want to take shortcuts. And it's easy to do so, but you can never take away the effort of hard work and discipline and sacrifice.
